order that he might see for himself the
condition of the streets. etc. Mr.. Water

When the train from the West reached
Cheyenne Yesterday a gentleman named
William Briggs, a passenger on his way
East, pointed out to Officer Deitrick an
individual whom he desired to have ar
rested and in a hurried manner explained
the reason for making the request. Mr..
Deitrick at once arrested the individual.
whose name is Gray, and at once marched
him to the county jail. To make a long
story short, it was what now appears to be
a case of robbery. for even robbery may
be committed upon another when he is
asleep. Briggs, as before stated, was on
his way East, and had a bundle of bills
amounting to $40 rolled up in one of his
inside pockets. Between Carbon and Lar
annie City, early yesterday morning,
Briggs camped down on the seats of the
car and went to sleep. When he awoke
some three hours later his money was
gone, and an investigation disclosed the
fact that the individual arrested yesterday
came into the car and sat down beside
him where he lay, for an hour Or. He
then got up and went away. The con
ductor saw the man at the time, but
thought nothing about it. When searched
at the Jail yesterday not a cent was found
on his person, all of which is so singular
that 1t is supposed he had a partner to
whom he gave the money and who has
gone on Eastward. Sheriff Sharpless is
investigating the matter.
